Skoda octavia 2 stereo wiring chart

Featured Replies

Hello, I have this adapter Link here

 

However we cannot connect the stereo. If we connect it directly the stereo is always on. Because of this I would neee the chart to see the ignitation etc wires. Does anybody have a picture that includes all wires connected in the car end

The stock headunit doesn't use a switched ignition feed so there isn't one.

 

You will need to run a new wire from the fusebox or use a CAN-bus adaptor :)

Hey, the stock headunit was a skoda stream which automatically turned on when turning the key

Yes, the Stream turns on and off due to a CAN-bus message.

 

However, your aftermarket headunit needs a switched live as it won't support the CAN-bus message.

Can you link this? Where do I need to connect it?

I do not have any steering wheel controls.

In the picture from the website you linked, you can see a red wire coming off the black 8 pin connector that goes nowhere.

 

You need to extend the red wire to the car fusebox and attach it to a switched live. A multimeter will help you find one...

It would help a lot if someone had a diagram for all the pins. Can't find any

Is A7 +12 switched the ignition wire? Is it supposed to go somewhere in the UPPER chart?

Yes, A7 needs to be the switched ignition wire.

 

The stock Stream headunit does not use a switched ignition wire, because of this, the quadlock connector does not have one fitted.

 

You need to run a wire from A7 to a switched ignition feed, the best location is the fuse box.

There are definitely switched lives in the fuse box...

 

I assume you're checking the one at the end of the dash panel?
